Sounds good in theory to not allow VFL players. But it will just turn them away to other competitions. The standard will drop away. But players who deserve a game and done all the hard yards during the season will now get one.
That's fine, you aren't competing against other competitions & really, who cares if players with minimal connection to the comp head elsewhere.

So we will get the same standard as we see all year and a true representation of the clubs competing in the finals. Oh no…

How so? Plenty of VFL players won’t qualify for finals now
I don’t think it makes much difference to the overall competitiveness of the league across the board whether the VFL players are available or not

The opposite is true. You will get the VFL players spotted through the year and not available for finals. It won’t be the same.

Well not really… out of 18 games if a VFL plays 3 the 15 others will be the regular standard.

My guess is plenty of clubs will place their recruiting focus elsewhere
